I'm going to try a new way to focus on both writing and related activities. this week, beginning with monday night's post that seemed well-received, I will write a stanza a day so block stays away and add it to the week's poem. at the end I shall have a seven stanza something.

Monday 6/10
Comes nigh the end of life, my friend,
and ere you've walked my path with me.
Now lay me to my final rest;
I crave the solace you will be.

Tuesday 6/11
And when the stars should kiss my soul,
and Heaven's gate's one step away,
And if I've lived and died for God,
no tears are shed for me that day

Wednesday (day 3)
Give dead to rise, ye crying eyes,
and leave me knocking at God’s door,
and might I be of want to see
the angels numbered by the score.
